Resumen
Descripción
This study investigates nonparametrically the optimizing behavior of a
sample of 289 Kansas farms under profit-maximizing and cost-minimizing
hypotheses. The results do not support strict adherence to either
optimization hypothesis. However, evidence against cost-minimizing behavior
seems to be far less substantial than that against profit-maximizing behavior.
